The Writings of the Apostolic Fathers (95-202 AD): When the Apostle Philip asked the Ethiopian eunuch if he understood the Book of Isaiah that he was reading, the eunuch humbly asked, “How can I, except some man should guide me” (Acts 8:31)? Similarly, we look to those who have been enlightened by the Holy Spirit for the correct understanding of Holy Scripture.

Homilies

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fable” (2 Timothy 4:2-4).
